This workshop is a longer workshop aimed at the intermediate + level craft student.

You may have an interest in millinery, or craft in general, and have good hand sewing skills.

You will be able to use one of Wendy's small hat blocks, or bring your own small wooden hat block - to work on.

You will use Foss shape to block the hat block, and then work to how to cover  and line the shape with fabric, after wiring. The aim of this workshop is to create a finished fabric covered and lined hat shape.
